5 deliverables in this treatment
- Static flexibility assessment (hamstrings, calves, Achilles)
- Dynamic functional tests: single-leg squat, hop tests, drop-jump, Y-Balance, DNS
- Pedoscan plantar pressure mapping
- 2D kinematic video analysis (lateral and posterior views, outdoor or treadmill)

Running gait analysis at CPM Pavla Koláře combines static mobility assessment, dynamic functional movement tests, pedoscan foot pressure mapping, and 2D kinematic video analysis to produce a biomechanical profile of your running technique. The assessment identifies movement patterns associated with injury risk — including hip drop, over-stride, excessive pronation, and asymmetrical loading — and generates a written report with visual documentation sent within 14 days. Designed for runners seeking injury prevention, performance improvement, or biomechanical correction.
About this treatment
Running gait analysis at CPM Pavla Koláře is a systematic biomechanical assessment designed to identify the movement patterns in a runner's technique that are associated with common running injuries or performance limitations. Unlike simple video analysis, the assessment integrates multiple data streams — static testing, functional movement assessment, foot pressure mapping, and video kinematics — to build a picture of how the entire kinetic chain behaves…
The static component assesses baseline mobility in the hamstrings, calves, and Achilles — restrictions in any of these commonly alter gait by limiting hip extension or dorsiflexion and triggering compensatory patterns upstream. The dynamic component includes single-leg squat assessment (revealing hip and pelvis control under load), hop tests for elastic energy storage and release, drop-jump analysis for landing mechanics, and Y-Balance testing for dynamic…
The 2D kinematic video analysis captures running at standard outdoor pace or on a treadmill in the clinic, with lateral and posterior views. Frame-by-frame analysis identifies trunk lean, foot strike pattern, cadence, vertical oscillation, over-stride distance, hip drop (Trendelenburg), knee alignment in the stance phase, and arm mechanics. The pedoscan foot pressure map adds plantar loading data — identifying hallux function, forefoot versus rearfoot…

Who is this for?
Recreational and competitive runners with recurring injuries, those returning to running post-injury, athletes seeking technique improvement and performance optimisation
Preparation required
Wear neutral sports clothing without external bracing if possible. Bring your regular running shoes (the shoes you train in, not new ones). If you run on a treadmill, advise the clinic in advance so they can set up the treadmill option.
